I would be completely lost on such a thing. This somehow reminds me of the video of the keyboard salesman from Japan playing drums on a keyboard... :roll:

Don't laugh, but that's how I do all the percussion on my office demo tracks, using my old Alesis synthesizer. You wouldn't believe how tense and tedious it is to try to hit a single key on time and with about the same firmness, over and over again for four or five minutes straight. Even if you split it into individual tracks, it's much more tedious that playing all the guitar parts properly.
Samples here:

The good news is that unlike a real drummer, my synth has never tried to hustle my wife or borrow money from me and you don't have to search the entire venue to find it when it's time to go on stage.....

Paul, I think we should combine the sound-to-light technology used in the Rickenbacker Lightshow guitars and that of the current, digital fake fireplace images and make a real Fireglo Rick.

I need this product!
EDIT: The double keyboard, not the guitar.
